Wasn't talking about colors, I was talking about the V8.

Finally they did. Without that there would have been no V8!
JF> With all due respect, Phil, that's just not true.
JF> We would have had V-8s one way or the other.
Wrong. Do some research, there was no V8 cast into a single block, the engineers
said it could not be done. Ford said, I want it and I'll have it.

You wont be very successful very long if you do not think.
JF> Yep, it was just my luck.
Luck can change really fast.
JF> Better to be lucky than "smart," eh?
Better to be successful than lucky.
Success doesn't come from luck. It comes from well planed thoughts.
Ford was a success because he applied the principles of success. One of these is
desire, 'knowing what one wants.'

Sounds like you've got a problem, try some Ben-Gay.
